Senior Process Expert at A.P. Moller - Maersk
Gained full visibility and streamlined threat detection through behavior-based insights and AI integration
Initially, we got to have a lot of false positives when we onboarded, but nowadays it's quite smooth. We have fine-tuned our security policies and allowed different levels of policies to get rid of those false positives. Currently, we are getting a fairly good amount of incidents that are not false positives or benign, but actionable items. The process is streamlined. In the initial days, the operations used to get involved in a lot of benign and other activities, but now the process is streamlined. We are leveraging the auto-detection and remediation plans. The operations teams are now more involved in other business roles as well, not just looking into the logs and fetching out what's happening there. They have fixed a lot of things. Initially, they didn't have IAC code drift detection, cloud posture management, or security posture management, but they have those now. They purchased different vendors and did a merger with that. They have now Prisma Cloud that gets integrated and now they are working with Cortex Cloud. Everything that was negative has now been addressed, and the product altogether looks to be in a very better and mature shape now. Currently, it's more or less detecting the workloads with AI-based best practices. Since most organizations are consuming AI agents and other things, we are looking forward to seeing what other feature enhancements Palo Alto can support in that.

Auto scanning and enhanced security but re-adding protections need improvement
At that time, we observed certain issues with the product. The functionalities could be improved, such as the isolation feature. If we remove our protection, we cannot easily add it back. If, in our organization, we need to remove a specific system for a particular time, we cannot add it back for security after doing so. This is one thing we have experienced. Scalability is also lacking. If we want to do the same thing repeatedly, there's not much the solution offers; it isn't very strong.

Comprehensive endpoint visibility and multilayer security have strengthened compliance and protected removable media in critical environments
I work with the data sanitization feature, including USB. When it comes to data integrity, it is not meant for data integrity; it will modify your data. It will not look into your content, but it will look into embedded objects, such as hyperlinks, scripts, and any other embedded object, macro, and images. It will remove that potential malicious content, sanitize the hyperlink, remove the macro, sanitize the embedded objects, and remove the scripts if they are attached in your document to prevent you from zero-day attacks. MetaDefender Endpoint has an excellent malware detection feature; it has around thirty plus different anti-malware engines, so the detection ratio can go up to ninety-nine point nine percent. The vulnerability assessment feature definitely helps to address system vulnerabilities. You will have visibility of the vulnerability, and it is a continuous assessment. You will get complete visibility of your environment and of your endpoint.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Stability is a primary factor, and then there's the ease of distribution and policy management."
"It has a higher cost than other solutions, like CrowdStrike or Microsoft’s EDR tools, but it reduces the cost of our operations because it’s a new generation antivirus tool."
"The good thing about the product is that it's always scanning."
"The dashboard is customizable."
"Palo Alto is constantly adding new features."
"The positive impacts I see from Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks include a complete 360-degree view of our security posture altogether, being a uniform platform where we are ingesting logs from multiple resources."
"Cortex is the best tool for endpoint detection, and I have used it to verify hashes or domains to identify malicious activity, trigger playbooks that automate and gather endpoint logs, block malicious processes, and update incident tickets, showcasing end-to-end processes with automation in investigation and reducing the analysis workflow."
"The interface is easy to use and it is more up to date than our previous solution."
"The auto-scanning feature is quite beneficial."
"The auto-scanning feature is quite beneficial."
"Altogether, it is going to be complete endpoint protection and visibility."
 

Cons

"There are some default policies which sometimes affect our applications and cause them to run around. In the hotel industry, we use a different type of data versus Oracle and SQL. By default, there are some policies which stop us from running properly. Because of this, the support level is also not that strong. We have to wait to get a results."
"It would be good if they could make an exception for applications. Sometimes, it can be a bit of a challenge to make exceptions for certain applications that have been used as rogue."
"Cortex XDR should have a lightweight agent, and the agent size should not be heavy."
"It would be good to have a better way to search for a file within the UI."
"We have found that there are times Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks does not detect some of the viruses, we have to use another protection solution called Kaspersky."
"There is also no recovery feature; if some endpoint is under attack there must be the possibility of recovering it or restoring it to a normal state."
"The technical support is not very good. I find the process difficult."
"The solution should offer more dashboards and they should be better customized."
"Scalability is lacking. If we want to do the same thing repeatedly, there's not much the solution offers; it isn't very strong."
"The functionalities could be improved, such as the isolation feature."
"The negative aspect is that it only provides visibility; you require integration with multiple products to get complete control."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cortex XDR's pricing is ok."
"The solution is expensive. It's pricing is on a yearly-basis."
"Cortex XDR is a costly solution."
"It is cost-effective compared to similar solutions. It fits for the small businesses through to the big businesses."
"This is an expensive solution."
"Very costly product."
"The return on investment is from the user side because we have seen the performance of it increase the delivery time of the product if we are using too many web-based and on-premise applications. In indirect ways, we saw the return of investment in terms of performance and user satisfaction increase."
"The price of the product is not very economical."
